ASNAT alpaca earrings

£27.00

Many suggest the spirals are representative of the cycle of rebirth or as a symbol of a mother goddess.

The spiral is a very feminine symbol, representing not only women but also a variety of things traditionally associated with women. Besides lifecycles, fertility, and childbirth, the spiral can reference intuition and other more internal concepts associated with women.

Inspired by the symbol, I created the ASNAT earrings. To make them I used a technique called dry needle felting.
It is a time-consuming technique but does not require detergents, and the alpaca fleece retains its original character.

In addition, after the wire was formed, it was hand-hammered. This technique has given the earrings a rawness. No piece is the same!

There is something magical about making the ASNAT earrings. I hope you can feel that magic by wearing your own pieces Xx

TECHNIQUE & FINDINGS

To make the earrings I used a technique called needle felting (dry felting).
It is a time-consuming technique, but it does not require the use of detergents, and the alpaca fleece retains its natural character. Even after felting, the balls are still very soft!
I also value needle felting for the possibility of obtaining flexible yet durable shapes.

The findings are made of surgical stainless steel (316L).

SURGICAL STEEL

Surgical stainless steel has a hypoallergic formula. Surgical steel is not the same as alpaca or cheap metal. Unlike silver or gold, it does not require maintenance, cleaning and care, so you can enjoy its beauty and gloss without much effort. The surface is resistant to oxidation and corrosion. The components don’t start to smell or tarnish after time.

PACKAGING

The earrings will arrive in one of my pouches. All the materials I use for packaging are environmentally friendly and recycled, from the acid-free tissue paper to the unbleached postal box it arrives in.

If you are wanting to send this directly as a gift then just fill in the ‘notes’ section at check out and I will leave the invoice out of the parcel and add a personalised message if you require.
